I hope to stay in touch with old friends,and I have made many new friends with this blog. Scrapbooking has become my new passion.I was introduced to the hobby by my youngest daughter.She went on a trip to South Africa and came home to Greece with a collection of papers ,flowers, brads and glue.SO the mania began,it is a mania that gives me such pleasure,creating gives one a great sense of achievement....

Summer Fun

Hi there Friends.

I have been so distracted with my Birthday Challenge.....but today I thought I have to make a L.O.!!!
I have brought some photos with me to scrap and I loved these 2 of my son Michael and my sister's son George....the Terrible Twins we call them. They were having crazy fun just before going home after spending the whole afternoon on the beach with the whole family...Michael is holding his shorts and Papou's house keys..

I was inspired by Case File No.81 on CSI and I decided to use the sketch form Sketches With A Twist the twist was to use plain cardstock as a base....here is a pic of my desk just before I started...

I always pull what I could use from my stash..you can see the buttermilk cardstock in the pile....I used an acrylic cork and some Walnut Stain Distress Ink to stamp the circles...

So my evidence includes Fleur de Lys, bird, jute/twine, circles amd textured paper...I thought that the circle stamp with the swallows was perfect for Summer...I love the way they dive down for water in the evenings!
I started with the 6 word testimony promt but then I landed up journalling all around the edges of the paper and I also journalled in a curve around the corners.

The girls at Scrapbooking Greece have summer challenge on too, so I am also entering this L.O. there.
